Therapy is done by means of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP). A device delivers a small amount of air pressure to your airways while you sleep, thus maintaining an open airway passage.
If obstructive sleep apnea is diagnosed during the overnight sleep study, a repeat sleep study will be arranged, this time with the assistance of CPAP, to determine what the optimum air pressure for your level of seriousness would be.
